Abstract In this article we introduce a theory of integration for deterministic, operator-valued integrands with respect to cylindrical L´evyprocesses in separable Banach spaces. Here, a cylindrical L´evyprocess is understood in the classical framework of cylindrical random variables and cylindrical measures, and thus, it can be considered as a natural gener- alisation of cylindrical Wiener processes or white noises. Depending on the underlying Banach space, we provide necessary and/or sufficient conditions for a function to be in- tegrable. In the last part, the developed theory is applied to define Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes driven by cylindrical L´evyprocesses and several examples are considered.
1 Introduction
The degree of freedom of models in infinite dimensions is often reflected by the constraint that each mode along a one-dimensional subspace is independently perturbed by the noise. In the Gaussian setting, this leads to the cylindrical Wiener process including from a modeling point of view the very important possibility to describe a Gaussian noise in both time and space with a great flexibility, i.e. space-time white noise. Up to very recently, there has been no analogue for L´evyprocesses. The notion cylindrical L´evyprocess appears the first time in the monograph [26] by Peszat and Zabczyk and it is followed by the works Brze´zniaket al [6], Brze´zniakand Zabzcyk [8], Liu and Zhai [18], Peszat and Zabczyk [27] and Priola and Zabczyk [28]. The first systematic introduction of cylindrical L´evyprocesses appears in our work Applebaum and Riedle [1]. In this work cylindrical L´evyprocesses are introduced as a natural generalisation of cylindrical Wiener processes, and they model a very general, discontinuous noise occurring in the time and state space. The aforementioned literature ([6], [8], [18], [27], [28]) study stochastic evolution equa- tions of the form
dY (t) = AY (t) dt + dL(t) for all t > 0, (1.1) where A is the generator of a strongly continuous semigroup on a Hilbert or Banach space. The driving noise L differs in these publications but it is always constructed in an explicit

1 way and it is referred to by the authors as L´evywhite noise, cylindrical stable process or just L´evynoise. The works have in common that the solution of (1.1) is represented by a stochastic convolution integral, which is based either on the one-dimensional integration theory, if the setting allows as for instance in [6], [27], or on moment inequalities for Poisson random measures as for instance in [8]. However, these approaches and the results are tailored to the specific kind of noise under consideration, respectively. The main objective of our work is to develop a general theory of stochastic integration for deterministic integrands, which provides a unified framework for the aforementioned works. Although not part of this work, the results are expected to lead to a better understanding of phenomena, which are individually observed for the solutions of (1.1) in the various models considered in the literature, such as irregularity of trajectories in [6]. In order to be able to develop a general theory, we define cylindrical L´evyprocesses by following the classical approach to cylindrical measures and cylindrical processes, which is presented for example in Badrikian [2] or Schwartz [34]. This systematic approach for cylindrical L´evyprocesses is developed in our work together with Applebaum in [1]. In the current work, we illustrate that those kinds of cylindrical L´evynoise, considered in the literature, are specific examples of a cylindrical L´evyprocess in our approach. Integration for random integrands with respect to other cylindrical processes than the cylindrical Wiener process is only considered in a few works. In fact, we are only aware of two approaches to integration with respect to cylindrical martingales, which originate either in the work developed by M´etivierand Pellaumail in [20] and [21] or by Mikuleviˇcius and Rozovskiˇıin [22] and [23]. However, both constructions heavily rely on the assumption of finite weak second moments and are therefore not applicable in our framework. For cylindrical L´evyprocesses with weak second moments, a straightforward integration theory is introduced in Riedle [31]. It is worth mentioning that a localising procedure cannot be applied to cylindrical L´evyprocesses since they do not necessarily attain values in the underlying space. Our work can be seen as a generalisation of the publications by Chojnowska-Michalik [9] on the one hand and by Brze´zniakand van Neerven [7] and by van Neerven and Weis [36] on the other hand. In [9] the author introduces a stochastic integral for deterministic integrands with respect to genuine L´evyprocesses in Hilbert spaces. If we apply our approach to this specific setting, the class of admissible integrands for the integral, developed in our work, is much larger than the one in [9], see Remark 5.11. The articles [7] and [36] introduce a stochastic integral with respect to a cylindrical Wiener processes in Banach spaces. But the approach in [7] and [36] differs from ours as the Gaussian distribution enables the authors to rely on an isometry in terms of square means. Our approach to develop a stochastic integral is based on the idea to introduce first a cylindrical integral, which exists under mild conditions, since cylindrical random variables are more general objects than genuine random variables. A function is then called stochas- tically integrable if its cylindrical integral is actually induced by a genuine random variable in the underlying Banach space, which is then called the stochastic integral. The advan- tage of this approach is that the latter step is a purely measure-theoretical problem, which can be formulated in terms of the characteristic function of the cylindrical integral. Since the stochastic integral, if it exists, must be infinitely divisible, we can describe the class of integrable functions by using conditions which guarantee the existence of an infinitely divisible random variable for a given semimartingale characteristics. The candidate for the semimartingle characteristics is provided by the cylindrical integral, since its characteris- tic function coincides with the one of its possible extension to a genuine random variable. Conditions, guaranteeing the existence of an infinitely divisible measure in terms of the characteristic function, are known in many spaces, e.g. in Hilbert spaces and in Banach
2 spaces of Rademacher type. The developed theory of stochastic integration is applied to define Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes driven by cylindrical L´evyprocesses. We show in two corollaries, that our approach easily recovers results from the literature on the existence of Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes. The organisation of this paper is as follows. In Section 2 we collect some preliminaries on cylindrical measures and cylindrical random variables, which can be found for example in Badrikian [2] and Schwartz [34]. In Section 3 we recall the definition of a cylindrical L´evy process, based on our paper [1] with Applebaum, and we cite some results on its characteris- tics from Riedle [30]. Furthermore, some important properties of cylindrical L´evyprocesses are established. Section 4 provides several examples of cylindrical L´evyprocesses. In par- ticular, we show that the noises, considered in the aforementioned publications, are covered by our systematic approach. In Section 5 we develop a theory of stochastic integration for deterministic, operator-valued integrands with respect to cylindrical L´evyprocesses. We finish this work with Section 6 where we apply the developed integration theory to treat Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes.
2 Preliminaries
Let U be a separable Banach space with dual U ∗. The dual pairing is denoted by hu, u∗i for u ∈ U and u∗ ∈ U ∗. The Borel σ-algebra in U is denoted by B(U) and the closed unit ball at the origin by BU := {u ∈ U : kuk 6 1}. The space of positive, finite Borel measures on B(U) is denoted by M(U) and it is equipped with the the topology of weak convergence. The Bochner space is denoted by L1([0,T ]; U) and it is equipped with the standard norm. ∗ ∗ ∗ N For every u1, . . . , un ∈ U and n ∈ we define a linear map
n ∗ ∗ π ∗ ∗ : U → R , π ∗ ∗ (u) = (hu, u i,..., hu, u i). u1 ,...,un u1 ,...,un 1 n Let Γ be a subset of U ∗. Sets of the form
∗ ∗ ∗ ∗ C(u1, . . . , un; B) : = {u ∈ U :(hu, u1i,..., hu, uni) ∈ B} −1 = π ∗ ∗ (B), u1 ,...,un ∗ ∗ Rn where u1, . . . , un ∈ Γ and B ∈ B( ) are called cylindrical sets. The set of all cylindrical sets is denoted by Z(U, Γ) and it is an algebra. The generated σ-algebra is denoted by Zˆ(U, Γ) and it is called the cylindrical σ-algebra with respect to (U, Γ). If Γ = U ∗ we write Z(U) := Z(U, Γ) and Zˆ(U) := Zˆ(U, Γ). A function η : Z(U) → [0, ∞] is called a cylindrical measure on Z(U), if for each finite subset Γ ⊆ U ∗ the restriction of η to the σ-algebra Zˆ(U, Γ) is a measure. A cylindrical measure η is called finite if η(U) < ∞ and a cylindrical probability measure if η(U) = 1. For every function f : U → C which is measurable with respect to Zˆ(U, Γ) for a finite subset Γ ⊆ U ∗ the integral R f(u) η(du) is well defined as a complex valued Lebesgue integral ∗ if it exists. In particular, the characteristic function ϕη : U → C of a finite cylindrical measure η is defined by Z ∗ ihu,u∗i ∗ ∗ ϕη(u ) := e η(du) for all u ∈ U . U Let (Ω, A,P ) be a probability space. The space of equivalence classes of measurable func- 0 tions f :Ω → U is denoted by LP (Ω; U) and it is equipped with the topology of convergence in probability.
3 Similarly to the correspondence between measures and random variables there is an analogous random object associated to cylindrical measures: a cylindrical random variable Z in U is a linear and continuous map
∗ 0 R Z : U → LP (Ω; ).
Here, continuity is with respect to the norm topology on U ∗ and the topology of convergence in probability. A family (Z(t): t > 0) of cylindrical random variables Z(t) is called a cylindrical process. The characteristic function of a cylindrical random variable Z is defined by
